SpaceX CEO Elon Musk is prioritizing a vision of life on Mars as his time at the US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is about to end.
Billionaire Elon Musk chatted with Fox News host Jesse Watters, including the idea of geopolitical Martian space as a "survival insurance" for humanity.
"Sao Hoa is an insurance for the survival of all life. Then there will be a time when all life on Earth will be destroyed by the Sun. The sun is gradually expanding, so humans need an inter- planetary civilization, because the Earth will eventually be burned down" - Elon Musk shared.
Billionaire Elon Musk explains that his vision for Mars is not simply to land on this planet, to set up flags and footprints, but to create a self-operating city.
The basic key to the path of fate is that Mars is capable of self-operating and can develop on its own if the supply ships from Earth stop arriving for any reason. If we still need supply ships for Mars to exist, we have not created life insurance," Elon Musk emphasized.
The American billionaire noted: "We have not yet created "survival insurance" for all life. Therefore, the key point in the future, the moment that decides the fate of life as we know, is when Mars becomes a self-operating system".
In mid-March this year, billionaire Elon Musk posted on social networking platform X that SpaceX's Starship will depart for the red planet by the end of 2026, carrying Optimus - a human-shaped robot made by Tesla.
He predicted that if the missions go smoothly, humans could begin setting foot on Mars as early as 2029, although the more feasible time frame is probably 2031.
